Hey FAM!!

I can only use the church email system so I can't look at blogs. But I'm sure mine looks good. :)

Six missionaries work in the office doing random things to keep the mission running. My companion and I are the only assistants.

Yesterday we had three baptisms! It was awesome. One was Patricia, the mom of two recent converts. Her son baptized her and gave her the Holy Ghost. It was a cool experience. Her son had never given anyone the gift of the Holy Ghost, but when he did it, he gave her a wonderful blessing. The Holy Ghost definitely guided him. The other baptism we had was an elderly couple named Rosalio and Antonia. We had their wedding on Saturday. On Sunday they got baptized! Rosalio is 71 and Antonia is 69.  It's awesome to see people of this age come unto Christ and receive a forgiveness of their sins.

We have been doing lots of diviciones with other missionaries. President wants us to work with the new zone leaders. Tomorrow I'll be going back out to the coast to work. I love the coast. haha  Now that I'm used to the climate a little cooler, I'll get to see how I do in the heat out there.

Life is going great. We are cruising right along in the work of the Lord. We can't stop now!!

Love you all!!   Elder Rucker
